Hi,
I am trying to turn on the keybords' backlit but nothing works!
In the description of this laptop (and in youtube videos) it seems that this option is available. I have installed the programmable key software but there is no option for that.
Thanks!

That is an option. Did you buy the right option ? Does your machine have a key with backlit keyboard symbol ? Please try

(Note: symbol is on f5 key shown above).
Regards.

Hi .@Banhien
I have the HP ZBook Power G7.
My keyboard doesn't have this symbol on F5 (actually, it doesn't have it on any button).
But I have seen laptop reviews (like this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JE1gCac2WpM&ab_channel=DoveComputerSolutionsLtd) which show that F12 turns on/off the backlit. However, mine doesn't work.
Thanks!
